Our goal is to offer our customers peace of mind by providing their "family member" a home-away-from-home experience while residing with us. We do this by providing your dog with a room, not a cage, and lots of supervised playtime and personal attention.

We are a service company, dedicated to long-term relationships with our customers. We aim to be known as the premier dog care facility in the greater Memphis area.

 

Monica has been working with animals for fifteen years. Allergic to pets until an adult, she now shares her life and home with five Chihuahuas - Spencer, Lazlow, Winston, Pancho, and Dudley - and two Great Pyrenees named Abbington (2001 - 2008) and Quinn. When the allergies subsided, her passion for dogs resurfaced and flourished while working with local animal shelters and Humane Organizations where she helped to create programs for Adoption, Fostering, and Spay/Neutering. She continues to work with a local organization's Spay/Neuter program and with various rescue groups. It was about this time when she had the idea to open her Dude Ranch for Dogs. She quit her "real" job and went to work for a veterinarian to gain medical knowledge, so that she might be equipped to handle what may come her way when she opened her facility. During that time she researched the best and worst boarding kennels and planned for the opening of her own. Four Paws Ranch opened in October, 2001.
